# Setting up the daily data report

If your user account has been assigned as the "primary" or "backup" analyst in the Daily Data Monitoring Setup for at least one measurement station, a daily monitoring report will be sent to your user email. 

The first section of the daily monitoring report is a summary table for all measurement stations for which you are a primary or backup analyst, containing key information such as the last data timestamp, the number of days since that timestamp and the number of days since data was last retrieved by BrightHub.

The rest of the report is comprised of one page per measurement station displaying the plots that have been configured for each station in the Daily Data Monitoring Setup section of the Data Monitoring tab.

## Set up Daily Data Monitoring

{% hint style="info" %}
**Before you start:**
